Jeremiah 25:30-31
30 “Therefore prophesy against them all these words, and say to them: ‘The Lord will roar from on high, And utter His voice from His holy habitation; He will roar mightily against His fold. He will give a shout, as those who tread the grapes, Against all the inhabitants of the earth. 31 A noise will come to the ends of the earth— For the Lord has a controversy with the nations; He will plead His case with all flesh. He will give those who are wicked to the sword,’ says the Lord.” Jeremiah 26:3. Perhaps everyone will listen and turn from his evil way, that I may relent concerning the calamity which I purpose to bring on them because of the evil of their doings.’

God will take justice into this world of evil rebellion against Himself in the end; all will not just go to heaven because God is love - He is also holy and just. But if anyone listens to the good news of reconciliation in Christ, they can turn from evil to God and He will not give the due punishment in His court at time's end. Jesus Christ will fight the final battle to put evil in its place, and those knowing Him will ride behind Him in victory. Revelation 19:11-14
